Hi Anons! It's so good to see you!

>FRESHLY INSTALLED WINDOWS 7 - UPDATES AND DRIVERS
>"How do I install update/it won't let me install updates?"
Simplix's UpdatePack7R2!
v26.1.15: https://blog.simplix.info/update7
DDL: https://update7.simplix.info/UpdatePack7R2.exe

Alternatively, install the following two updates IN THIS ORDER to make Windows Update function on a freshly installed SP1 instance to install updates manually:

>"Nvidia says 475.14 is the final driver version but it doesn't work?"
472.12 is the last that cleanly installs, but 475.14 works with modification and has several years of vulnerability patches over 472.12. Use the following to make 475.14 work:

>WORKING MODERN PROGRAMS & SOFTWARE FOR WINDOWS 7
>"Is there an updated, modern, secure browser?"
win32's Supermium!
v144.0.7559.247 R2: https://www.win32subsystem.live/supermium/
https://github.com/win32ss/supermium

>"How can I still run Steam/other program?"
VxKex!
v1.1.4.1588: https://github.com/i486/VxKex/releases

Alternatively, win32 (author of Supermium) is also creating Second System. It's paywalled, but it's one-time for the latest version you download as there is no DRM and it's valiant work:

PythonVista!

Is there any reason to use it over win 10 IoT?

Sorry, Nanami-chan. I’m with Debian/Xfce, now. It’s time to move on.

this is what mental illness looks like
>>
>>108764821
why are you here?
>>
>>108764836
to remind you to seek help
>>
>>108764800
no, there are none
>>
bro just install this random .exe "update" and 50 shady github scripts trust me bro it's way better and safer than win10/11/linux
>>
>>108764869
No claims or statements like that were made in this thread. Are you seeing posts we don't see or are you being a silly-willy and making strawmans?
>>
>>108764899
you claimed that in the previous thread
But I'm even worse than you because I'm giving you attention and bumping this retardation
>>
>>108764869
are you scared?
>>
>>108764800
Yeah its a good OS unlike 10. Held back only by compatibility issues. Now if your question was >is there any reason to use it over linux then answer would be different

reminder that you are a mentally ill necrophiliac and that you need to see a psychologist

>>108765047
W10 is better than w7
>>
>>108765047
desu I'm tempted to set it up in a dual boot config on my t420, could be fun to see how useable it is still
>>
>>108765113
sure if you want to do it offline that's fine by me
>>
When I launch some games on Steam with W7, I get an error message saying it can't find "GetPointerInfo" in "USER32.dll"
This doesn't prevent the game from opening or running, it's just an annoying message that pops in dozen of times before the game actually launch.
Interestingly, using VxKex on those games causes them to crash.
>>
>>108764692
Any way to have cuda 12 or 13 and nvidia 5xx drivers?
>>
>>108766330
You'd need to look for modified drivers. GPUs up to 30xx are supported and work, beyond that is uncharted territory.
